ICT Microsoft Excel problem
« on: January 23, 2011, 05:11:27 pm »
hi ,

i was practicing microsoft excel and i got stuck in a problem ...when i use the Vlookup function it gives only the first two results correct and the rest are all either N/A or VALUE ! ...

when i check the formula the values are different then the ones i entered...

for example if i chose my table to be from A2 till B7 ,the first few will be set within that table and the rest will be waay different like A17 or B27

well make sure that there's absolute and cell referencing
so if the range is A1:A15 put the dollar sign so that it's like this $A$1:$A$15
this way the range wont change as u go down the column

hope this helps!
